ASHEVILLE, N.C. - Nov. 14 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- This fall artist Damaris Pierce launches her new, national postcard art project just in time to celebrate the Thanksgiving holiday. The project, entitled "I Am Thankful," encourages individuals of all ages and organizations such as craft guilds, public schools and counseling centers to create original postcard artwork expressing gratitude. Postcards submitted can honor people, places, things or circumstances and artwork can be simple or elaborate as long as it remains two-dimensional.

Caption: Artist Damaris PierceOnce completed, postcards can be mailed to Pierce's attention at her studio located at 69 Wamboldt Avenue Asheville, NC 28806. All postcards will be considered for public display. In January 2008 Pierce will feature submitted gratitude postcards on her newly redesigned web site http://www.IAmThankful.com.

"Gratitude is more than a concept," states Pierce, "it is a state of being that can be cultivated every day". "I believe when you focus on what you are thankful for each day you begin to live a more joyful, fulfilled and pleasurable life," she continues, "I want to share this with others and create a public display of gratitude that ripples around the globe!" Pierce hopes to attract a variety of people and groups to the project including elementary school classrooms, art students, scrapbook enthusiasts, spiritual communities and more.

"All people understand what thankfulness is, it is universal, it crosses all cultural boundaries, " adds Pierce, "I want to encourage them to express, share and live it."

For more information on how to submit postcard art visit http://www.IAmThankful.com.

Pierce, a German native, is a self-taught, "outsider" artist who works with many mediums including stone, wood, paint and glass. She moved to the U.S. in 1990 and has resided in Asheville, NC since 1998. After a successful corporate career Pierce was inspired to make a dramatic transformation in her life. She chose to relocate to the mountains to begin living a more conscious, meaningful life dedicated to creative expression. Her original artwork is currently featured in multiple Asheville art galleries and she consults with clients as a creative and spiritual mentor.

Pierce was also recently chosen to be the German translator for the EMOTO PROJECT. This project is the latest from Dr. Masaru Emoto, who is currently developing a children's book of his nationally recognized studies of water crystals, The Hidden Messages From Water.

New Book Reveals Mystery of Obesity and Other Self-Destructive Conduct

Author: Heart of the Golden Triangle Publishers
Dateline: Wed, 14 Nov 2007

freeNewsArticles Story Summary: “ORLANDO, Fla. - Nov. 14 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- Tackling obesity from the inside out is no longer guess work. An exciting development that works to resolve this multi-source pandemic is the use of hypnoanalysis combined with hypnotherapy and Heart of the Golden Triangle Publishers has released a new book, 'Core Healing, Dissolving the DIS-Eases of Our Times' (ISBN-13: 9780615165974), that gets to the core of the matter.”



A R T I C L E:

ORLANDO, Fla. - Nov. 14 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- Tackling obesity from the inside out is no longer guess work. An exciting development that works to resolve this multi-source pandemic is the use of hypnoanalysis combined with hypnotherapy and Heart of the Golden Triangle Publishers has released a new book, "Core Healing, Dissolving the DIS - Eases of Our Times" (ISBN-13: 9780615165974), that gets to the core of the matter.

Caption: Cover, Core HealingJust as an MRI serves as a necessity for discovering problems within the body, hypnoanalysis is an essential tool for exploring the mind of an individual troubled by obesity or other self-destructive behavior.

The book fascinates with true stories of why people actually develop the problems they do. It is a readable, easy-to-understand book that takes a look at the guts of pandemic issues such as obesity, as well as the plagues of addictions, depression, anxiety, relationship issues, and more.

Author Dr. Joyce Glasser has taken two decades of experience in the field of hypnoanalytic work and shares secrets of the subconscious mind. She clearly explains why people suffer from these common problems.

"Hypnoanalysis facilitates the surfacing of a person's consciously- unavailable unknowns, a person's subconsciously held truths," Glasser explained. "A person's subconscious is the gold mine of irrational, untrue beliefs that dictate out-of-control behavior."

The reasons for obesity are as varied as the people who suffer from the disorder. One patient believed that obesity would make her invisible. Dr. Glasser explored the rationale behind her concept and it was explained to her that "people avert their eyes from me when I waddle by."

Hypnoanalytic investigation further questioned why the person wished to be invisible. This led to a discussion of name calling where the patient was referred to as the "ugly duckling of the family" when she was a child. In no small measure, this was a catalyst in promoting the problem.

The subconscious mind catalogues and makes available for governing response, a person's self concepts and beliefs - positive and negative. Hypnoanalysis seeks and hypnotherapy deletes and replaces the negatives with positives so that a person is free to implement the positives without hindrance.

"Without a seek, delete, and replace process, the negatives remain, can dominate and cause difficulty," Dr. Glasser added.

Negative thoughts lead to negative emotions and actions. Conversely, subconsciously-held positive thoughts in the form of self concepts and self beliefs lead to positive feelings and constructive, self-fulfilling behavior.

"No other word than 'inspiring' can summarize the work described in Dr. Glasser's book," Steve Warner, Ph.D., Advisory Editor to the American Journal of Clinical Hypnosis, said. "This guidebook is not only clearly written, but comes from a heart and soul type of dedication to help heal."

Dabney M. Ewin, M.D., FACS, Clinical Professor of Surgery and Psychiatry of Tulane, University Medical School and Clinical Professor of Psychiatry at Louisiana State University Medical School, explains that Dr. Glasser emphasizes that peoples' subconscious programming dictates their choices.

"Dr. Glasser describes, in a simple manner, how this happens and how to change bad programming through hypnotic regressions to the origin of the bad ideas," Dr. Ewin said. "The book gets to the core of the problems directly, and the techniques are described clearly. Both professionals and lay people can benefit from reading this book."

Dr. Glasser's passion to ease pain and suffering prompted her return to school where she earned a doctorate in Educational Psychology with clinical emphasis from Florida State University. She is licensed as a Mental Health Counselor.

Currently, Dr. Glasser has a private practice in Eustis, Florida where she specializes in Core Healing. She has made frequent radio and television appearances, has conducted seminars, and given lectures. She is a member of the Florida Society of Clinical Hypnosis.

According to the new industry market study, overall telecommunications services revenues are expected to grow at a compounded rate of nearly 10.3 percent over the next few years, reaching $2.7 trillion by 2013.”

BOONTON, N.J. - Nov. 14 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- Global telecommunications industry services revenue will reach $1.7 trillion by the close of 2008, with continued strong growth in wireless leading the way, says a new market analysis report from The Insight Research Corporation. According to the new industry market study, overall telecommunications services revenues are expected to grow at a compounded rate of nearly 10.3 percent over the next few years, reaching $2.7 trillion by 2013.

Caption: Insight ResearchWireless makes the strongest showing across all sectors while wire line follows a distant second. Nearly all of the growth in both sectors is expected to occur in broadband services, with wireless broadband service revenues expected to grow at a compounded rate of more than 70 percent over the forecast period, while wire line broadband services grow at under 10 percent over the same forecast horizon.

"The 2008 Industry Review, an Anthology of Market Facts and Forecasts" states that in the growth environment set off by the rush to meet subscriber demand for broadband services, service providers are trying to create viable business models on the fly in order to deliver new types of IP-based services, including Residential Video Telephony, Fixed Mobile Convergence (FMC), File Sharing/Downloading Services, Audio/Video Streaming Services, Location-Based Services, and Presence-Based Services.

The study highlights rapidly growing industry segments such as VoIP, WiFi and WiMax, FMC, IMS, IPTV and streaming media, as well as technological innovations such as grid computing and DWDM and WDM in fiber optics. The report also looks at changes in telecommunications buying patterns among enterprises that purchase managed services as well as other communications services. The study highlights the use of outsourcing by carriers as a major factor in the return to profitability.

"The telecommunications industry is growing, and broadband networking that will be deployed to facilitate new service offers is leading the way," says Insight president Robert Rosenberg.

Charlie Allen Restorations Wins Contractor of the Year (CotY) Award

Author: Charlie Allen Restorations
Dateline: Tue, 13 Nov 2007

freeNewsArticles Story Summary: “BOSTON, Mass. - Nov. 13 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- Charlie Allen Restorations has been recognized with the Contractor of the Year (CotY) Gold Award for Residential Interiors for its meticulous renovation of an 1853 Greek Revival home in Cambridge, MA. The Eastern Massachusetts chapter of the National Association of the Remodeling Industry (EM-NARI) presented the award on Wednesday, November 7.”

Cambridge firm receives Gold Award for Residential Interiors

BOSTON, Mass. - Nov. 13 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- Charlie Allen Restorations has been recognized with the Contractor of the Year (CotY) Gold Award for Residential Interiors for its meticulous renovation of an 1853 Greek Revival home in Cambridge, MA. The Eastern Massachusetts chapter of the National Association of the Remodeling Industry (EM-NARI) presented the award on Wednesday, November 7.

"Receiving this recognition from our peers in the industry is a significant honor," says Charlie Allen, founder of the Cambridge-based firm. "It's also a great testament to the craftsmanship and hard work regularly demonstrated by the entire Charlie Allen team, as well as our talented partners on this project."

The award-winning renovation transforms a row house that had suffered numerous additions and alterations over the years, resulting in an unwieldy floor plan that placed both the homeowner's master bedroom and a separate apartment, used as a rental unit, on the second floor of the three-story house. The owners, a young, growing family, tasked Charlie Allen Restorations with turning the dwelling back into a one-family, kid-friendly space, while restoring its 19th-century charm.

Working with architect Tom Downer, the team eliminated the rental space and crafted a master bathroom, dressing area, and child's bedroom and bathroom in its place. Large closets and wall cubbies were introduced to improve storage for the family, and custom-designed, furniture-quality armoires were placed in the dressing area. Period-appropriate hardware, doors, base molding, and wide planked, white oak flooring were introduced to the home's bedrooms. The new master bath became the protagonist of the floor plan, combining both period detailing and modern amenities like a large, glassed-in shower that doubles as a steam room, radiant floor heating, and an electric towel warmer. Clerestory windows and frosted glass doors flood the bathroom with abundant natural lighting from floor-to-ceiling windows in the adjacent hallway.

In addition to Downer, other partners on the project include the demolition and disposal firm Mark One, Inc., HVAC specialists Keyes North Atlantic, Puccio Electric, and the cleaning firm Surfaceworks.

The 2007 Gold CotY Award marks Charlie Allen Restorations' fourth such award in the last three years.

The Eastern Massachusetts chapter of the National Association of the Remodeling Industry is a not-for-profit trade association committed exclusively to enhancing the professionalism of the remodeling industry and providing ethical and quality service to the region's remodeling homeowners. Representing full-service remodeling contractors, design-build firms, architects, designers, subcontractors, product manufacturers, distributors, wholesalers, and those who provide services and products to the remodeling field, NARI stands as the spokesgroup of the industry and an ally to the nation's homeowners.

Charlie Allen Restorations is an award-winning firm specializing in the seamless integration of modern amenities into period homes while retaining original period details. Charlie Allen Restorations combines expert tradespeople and established project management techniques to deliver exceptional customer satisfaction.

Dead Internet Startup Comes Back to Life – FreeOverstock Resurrected as CostsZero

Author: New Venture Company
Dateline: Tue, 13 Nov 2007

freeNewsArticles Story Summary: “LOS ANGELES, Calif. - Nov. 13 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- In less time than it took its URL to propagate across the world wide web, internet startup freeoverstock.com operated by New Venture Company was flat-lining by Monday morning and pronounced dead (i.e. offline) by late Tuesday. Possibly one of the shortest-lived internet startups in history, considering it was launched only the Thursday before.”



A R T I C L E:

LOS ANGELES, Calif. - Nov. 13 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- In less time than it took its URL to propagate across the world wide web, internet startup www.freeoverstock.com operated by New Venture Company was flat-lining by Monday morning and pronounced dead (i.e. offline) by late Tuesday. Possibly one of the shortest-lived internet startups in history, considering it was launched only the Thursday before.

Caption: CostsZeroInitially, owner and founder of the promising new venture, Sarkis Chakarian, was elated by the sudden and enthusiastic response. "We had over a thousand unique visitors right off the bat ordering free products," said Sarkis. But joy soon turned to dread when he received official word from a certain online retail giant that demanded he shut down his site and surrender the freeoverstock.com name immediately. "I was horrified because I'd invested so much time and energy into this site, not to mention money... and then to have the rug pulled out from under me was unthinkable."

But the unthinkable did happen. Threatened with a lawsuit from a company worth hundreds of millions "makes you think twice about taking them on."

Why this reaction? What danger could a tiny startup pose to a global leader in online retail? As one might guess, the problem lay in the name Freeoverstock.com sounding a lot like another popular website with much more money and power. Only Freeoverstock.com's business model is entirely different: they give away free stuff to visitors while The Huge O exacts payment from the net-surfing masses.

Nevertheless, the fear of serious repercussions was enough for Sarkis to re-launch his site under a new name: www.CostsZero.com. CostsZero will offer, as its name aptly suggests, a wide range of free merchandize.

"There was no way I could defend against these guys. They only gave me the weekend to make up my mind. Basically they told me to shut down my site and hand over my domain name or they were going to take me to court," Sarkis explained. Even if he decided to fight, was it worth hiring a lawyer and spending tens (if not hundreds) of thousands defending against an internet powerhouse ranked in the top thousand sites on the web? Sarkis didn't think so.

That's why if one were to visit www.freeoverstock.com today only an empty shell exists. Just another casualty of "Big Business Intimidation."

Sarkis has less than one day left to turn over his Freeoverstock domain name or face the full wrath of Corporate America. But he isn't worried: "I have a feeling CostsZero.com will have a longer life expectancy."

CostsZero.com will continue to offer free products to anyone who visits the site.

A Book with a Theme Song?

Author: Christian Artist's Workshop
Dateline: Tue, 13 Nov 2007

freeNewsArticles Story Summary: “DALLAS, Texas - Nov. 13 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- It's not a song book or a singing book, though technologically possible, but buyers of the new novella anthology, 'The Pilgrimage & Dark Spaces: Collected short works of fictional drama' (ISBN: 9780978713003), are asked to broaden their reading experience with a little original music accompaniment. The book written by Randy Doyle Hazlett and newly released by Christian Artist's Workshop directs readership to contemporary music extras.”

DALLAS, Texas - Nov. 13 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- It's not a song book or a singing book, though technologically possible, but buyers of the new novella anthology, "The Pilgrimage & Dark Spaces: Collected short works of fictional drama" (ISBN: 9780978713003), are asked to broaden their reading experience with a little original music accompaniment. The book written by Randy Doyle Hazlett and newly released by Christian Artist's Workshop directs readership to contemporary music extras found at http://www.DarkSpaces.info which were written specifically for the book. The music is freely downloadable for listening pleasure and available in popular ringtone formats (mp3, MIDI).

Caption: Artwork by Randy Doyle HazlettMusic or not, the book (see accompanying cover photo) contains a soul-searching slice of Americana. In "The Pilgrimage," we are invited into the home of a dysfunctional family exposed to tragedy. The family is fragmented and struggles to express emotion in any constructive form. At the death of a parent, the family is partially reunited, but the road long chosen takes some beyond the possibility of redemption. The departing gift of an old woman well-versed in the sins of others enables the eldest to rekindle life's most essential element - love.

Veteran Broadway actor, writer and producer Albert T. Viola of Princeton University parallels "The Pilgrimage" to the works of Nobel-prize winning American playwright Eugene O'Neill and says of Dr. Hazlett, "He writes with breathtaking realism, clarity and grace."

Regarding the second feature, "Dark Spaces" is a spiritual short story trilogy which follows the fictional lives of three couples separated in time. The intrigue of the short story collection in dramatic prose is both emotionally captivating and intellectually stimulating. In the genre of C.S. Lewis, "Dark Spaces" challenges readers to formulate their own theology and, in the process, reconnect with their eternal friend - their soul. In "The Pilgrimage and Dark Spaces," Randy Doyle Hazlett has thrown us a lifeline of faith, hope, and love.

This is Dr. Hazlett's second out-of-the-box book release of the year, with the first being the acclaimed nonfiction work, "Negotiate Like a Phoenician," coauthored with friend and business partner Dr. Habib Chamoun-Nicolas. With the success of that book, which draws heavily on Biblical accounts of the deal behind the construction of Solomon's Temple, a series of workshops on best business practices of the ancient Phoenician trading masters is being unveiled for 2008 at Camp Allen near Houston. In conjunction with the workshops, Dr. Hazlett is designing a suite of fun learning games for future commercial development. While entry into print media is new news, publishing is not. Loads more original music and additional ebooks reside in cyber metastasis at www.FreeChristianStuff.net.

Music, fun, and games aside, Christian Artist's Workshop is nominating "The Pilgrimage & Dark Spaces: Collected short works of fictional drama" for a PEN/Faulkner Award and National Book Critics Circle Award consideration. The book is currently available in trade paperback online or directly via Pathway Book Services (800-345-6665) and Ingram or Baker & Taylor channels (ISBN: 9780978713003, LCCN: 2006905615) at a suggested retail price of $16.95. Speaking engagements and author interviews are by arrangement through website contacts.

With Caselite, we will be able to provide our staff with the technological tools they need to be efficient while considering all of their students' special scheduling and therapy needs," Paula L. McGraw, Speech-Language Specialist for AACPS, said.

"We are extremely pleased that visionary leaders like Mrs. McGraw are using Caselite to establish district-wide best practices for workload management and therapy scheduling," said Caselite Software Founder, Monica Calello.

Unlike most jobs, which have predictable workdays with known breaks and typical starting and ending times, school-based SLPs have to create their own schedules around the requirements dictated by their caseload. McGraw continued, "In order to provide mandated services as soon as the school year begins, SLP's can rely on Caselite to create and change schedules quickly and efficiently and inform others of these changes easily at any time. Caselite will be an incredible time saver, which will increase effective service delivery and allow SLP'S to become creative and flexible in scheduling services to meet students' needs."

Caselite Software, headquartered in Charlotte, NC, was founded by Marc T. Calello, a software engineer, and his wife, Monica Calello, M.S., CCC-SLP, while she was working in the local schools. The endless hours of scheduling by hand prompted the Calellos to fill a much-needed niche.

Caselite is web-based and offers video demonstrations of Auto Scheduling and District Administrator features as well as a free online tour.

Innovative Hawaii Hotel Construction Database Helps Consumers

Author: Travel Hawaii LLC
Dateline: Fri, 09 Nov 2007

freeNewsArticles Story Summary: “HONOLULU, Hawaii - Nov. 9 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- Travel Hawaii LLC, a Hawaii-based Internet travel agency, has developed a database of Hawaii hotel construction and renovation projects designed to help consumers 'know before they go.' Customers can view all current construction projects and choose when it's best to schedule a Hawaii vacation and which hotels will be 'construction free.'”

Hotel Guests are Fully Informed Before They Book

HONOLULU, Hawaii - Nov. 9 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- Travel Hawaii LLC, a Hawaii-based Internet travel agency, has developed a database of Hawaii hotel construction and renovation projects designed to help consumers "know before they go." Customers can view all current construction projects and choose when it's best to schedule a Hawaii vacation and which hotels will be "construction free."

"It's a great disappointment to Hawaii visitors when they pay for a good room in a good hotel, only to find that the lobby or pool is being torn up for the entire time of their visit," said John Lindelow, owner of Travel Hawaii (http://Travel-Hawaii.com). "Our goal is to inform our clients BEFORE they even book their Hawaii vacation where there's construction, and exactly what kind of construction it is, so they can make informed decisions."

Travel Hawaii maintains a full list of current construction and renovation projects at major Hawaii hotels at http://Travel-Hawaii.com/hawaii_hotel_construction.html. In addition, current construction projects are described on Travel Hawaii's individual hotel web pages. "And just to be sure that our clients are aware of the construction, we require them to check a box on the booking form acknowledging that they know about the construction," added Lindelow.

An example of a Construction Alert (see Travel-Hawaii.com/Outrigger_Waikiki_Shore.html) reads as follows:

"Outrigger Hotels is remodeling the hotel next door to the Waikiki Shore - the Outrigger Reef. This construction may create noise during the day which could be disruptive to guests at the Waikiki Shore. Construction at the Outrigger Reef is due to complete at the end of 2008."

Construction at Hawaii hotels has been booming in the past two years as hotels vie to keep their hotels updated in light of changing consumer tastes and increasing demand. "We are seeing many more renovation projects being announced this year," said Lindelow, "and some huge ones at that, so we want to arm our clients with the knowledge they need."

About Travel Hawaii LLC
Founded in 1997 by computer scientist John Lindelow and travel agency owner Roz Rapozo, Travel Hawaii has become a leading Internet booking service for consumers wishing to vacation in Hawaii. Travel Hawaii maintains sophisticated online booking systems and databases focused on Hawaii travel.
